I can't think of words abusive enough to describe this sort of shit.
Utter worthless oxygen thieving scum.

Those huts are a bastion in the bush, a safe place for all, the difference between life and death.
And should always be treated with respect.
There's a new generation out there now and they don't give a flying fuck about respect. Just themselves in the here and now. Oxygen wasting twats.
About 11 years ago when I did a bit of work for doc we had to go up lake monowai and fix up the hut. Holes punched through the inside half a dozen bags of empties laying round, piles of toilet paper round the back of the hut.....
There are always those that don't appreciate what they have access to and can't understand that they (if they pay their taxes) end up paying for the damage.
might be time to throow up a few solar powered cctv cameras on around the area.
Are those huts easy to get too, 4WD or easy walk. Easily accessible huts seem to get more abuse than those that take effort to get too. Unfortunately this kind of thing is more common these days, and just disrespect for the outdoor environment generally.
Wankers. I hate that sort thing. Great wee hut too shallow bay. But like all the huts on the edge of eastern fiordland lakes, it gets trashed by idiot boaties on the piss.
Absolute drop kicks!!! Thats the kind of stuff where the perpetrators need to be made to do community service with DOC cleaning up other huts that have been trashed, make them cart the stuff out in packs for 8 hours and see how they feel about that!
Modern society is full of it - complete lack of respect for other people or their surroundings. And yet so fast to jump up and whinge if 'their' rights are impinged in any way.
A mate was in a similar area recently - long drive, hutt at road end.
Met a bunch of young ones who were going to stay in the hutt for a 'party'.
Cnuts....
Yes, very easy. Boat to the beach and a short walk, or about a 6km walk on a very easy track from the Rainbow Reach carpark. There are two other huts virtually on the Lake edge as well, Hope Arm and Freeman Burn (North Arm), so no surprise that Freeman Burn got damaged a few years back. I've seen a fair few pissed f*&kwits on that lake.
shit heads. Problem is there's too many of them around with zero respect for others property. Can only hope they get caught out one day in a good southerly gale and find out what hypothermia does.
Just loosers do this damage.One yr clearing tracks for Doc better than a $300 fine.
I know there is a ban on politics and religion, but in my view this is a small example of how values have changed in New Zealand and this change is accelerating.

When I was a kid the church bells rang on Sunday morning and we trotted along.
I enjoyed cadets at school, did drills, got to go camping and fire service rifles.
Mum didn't have to go to work to pay the mortgage.
The kids I knew wouldn't dream of answering back to a policeman.
The cop might come round and have a word to Dad
45 years later none of this applies.
Yes there were sh*theads but there's an awful lot more now, and I don't think these two things are unrelated.
Some say it's poverty that leads to bad apples and the answer is to provide more support.
However my wife is from Indonesia and is appalled at what we accept as normal in NZ; and would be outrageous in her country of birth.
The average income in Indonesia is 1/10th that of New Zealand.
The crime rate is 1/10th to 1/100th that of New Zealand
In other words in a so-called "third world" country with GDP per person of $NZ 5,500 you are an order of magnitude (or two) less likely to be a victim of crime.
Rates are per 100,000 - source is knoema.com
Serious Assault - Indo 3.4 ; NZ 534
Rape - Indo 0.7 ; NZ 32.1
Robbery - Indo 3.1 ; NZ 66.7
Car theft - Indo 10.4 ; NZ 1,172
Burglary - Indo 11.8 ; 1,354
Indo is far from perfect (e.g. corruption) but perhaps there's food for thought around the role of values vs income.

I've been to mangamuka hut before and people have taken a chisel to some of the trusses and generally stuffed it up. Lord knows why! It's a great hut and it's free to stay in
Some people just want to watch the world burn
Words fail me other than scum :pissed off:
